Pretty sure this is an open secret as a few members know by Facebook and PM. And it doesn't take a genius to work out why I have been selling all my parts off. It hurts typing this, which is silly as it's only a car but my Slicktop was written off a couple of months back.

Buying the MR2 has eased the pain :mad2: but only a little.

Didn't take loads of pics for obvious reasons, but here are a couple. Doesn't look too bad in the pics but you don't have to be too bright to work out the repair cost with new parts to know why it was declared a write off.

 

 

 

 

This thread is not a discussion about me buying it back, doesn't look too bad, easy repair etc, etc. It is just so you know what happened. I loved that car and spent a fortune getting it somewhere near what I wanted. The wheels I have put on my MR2 would have been perfect, along with an Alcantara interior. That was as far as I wanted to go.

 

Anyhow I would like to thank everyone for the welcome and help I've had over the last couple of years, it's been fun. I have met some nice people and there are lots on here I would have liked to have had a beer with :cowboy:

 

Regrets?? Not meeting more of you and not getting to JAE. Wish more of you had seen it in the metal. Really was as good if not better than it looked in the pics.

 

Thanks again and thanks for reading :sleep1:

If its any consolation mate, you have a cracking looking MR2

Mate, come to JAE... twas lots of fun last year.

 

Are knoblets allowed then?

I'll see you on the banger run mate!

 

Yeah buddy!!

Thanks mate. I'm lavishing the same attention on it as I did the Slicky. Even though I swore blind I wouldn't lol. Only had it 10 days and it looks so much better. I'm a cleaning freak!!

I fecking LOVE knoblets... I mean twiglets... shit... Freudian slip!

Are knoblets allowed then?

 

They let me in twice so far... so.....

eerrrmmm Daffy, Mate, do you remember always telling us about a squealling noise when you applied the brakes..?

 

anyhew.. I lament your loss.

 

Zed ownership aint such a straight road I'm discovering.

very sorry

Sorry to hear the news Daffy. I very nearly bought a MR2 before the Zed, hope to see it over the summer....Stay around matey:cool2:

I'll keep you in the loop bout local meets mate.... not least as dinner's on you next time :euro:

Absolutely gutted for you bud. I had no idea. On the plus, your ok and you've got a cracking looking MR2. A wee bit of your slicky will live on in my zed now though :)

Unlucky bud..

 

How did it happen? You can tell us - we won't rip on you (much). One day my car will look like that I'm pretty sure! Better to crash and burn rather than fade away..

I was sorry to hear this at the recent Red Lyon meet Daffy....

 

.....your ZX was a truly fine example. But the Mister-2 looks a decent purchase and I'm sure it will serve you well. As everyone says, don't be a stranger - plus you might find yourself in a ZX again in the future. Never say never....

 

All the best Dave - and see you at the next meet hopefully!!

My bad! I don't go on the Zclub forum really..... I should do so more often, I think I might even still be subscribed.

 

With that said, I think i might be able to make it to the meet too. You going Ian?
